The Azden SGM-250P is a professional shotgun microphone designed
for broadcast, news gathering and film making applications. The
SGM-250P boasts all the same features and sound quality
performance as the SGM-250 model, except that the SGM-250P
operates on phantom power exclusively (no battery option).
Power
Phantom power is a DC voltage supplied through a balanced
microphone cable and used to power the electronics of the connected
microphone. Most professional cameras, mixers and audio interfaces
with microphone XLR pre amps have the ability to supply phantom
power. If the equipment you use does not, you will have to utilize a
separate external phantom power supply.
